For accurate long-term ephemerides, please instead use our Horizons system.This orbit viewer was implemented using two-body methods, and hence should not be used for determining accurate long-term trajectories (over several years or decades) or planetary encounter circumstances.

| 16192 Laird | Discovered 2000 Jan. 4 by Spacewatch at Kitt Peak. |
| Canadian physicist Elizabeth Rebecca Laird (1874-1969) was known for her research on soft x-rays, the Raman effect and the effects of microwave radiation on biological materials. As head of the physics department at Mt. Holyoke College from 1904 to 1940 she inspired many women to pursue scientific careers. |
